14.2B divided by 85 people = 167,058,823

So metaphorically, from a height standpoint we are talking about 85 people who are each roughly 167,058,823 feet (31,000+ miles) tall. That does a nice job of putting it all in perspective actually. Thanks



I'm gonna have to realize it's a waste of time to try and get people to think on their own.



Look at the list of the top 100 wealthiest people on the planet and there is no common denominator re: how they accumulated that wealth. Some inherited it, other's capitalized off things such as the privatization of Russia, other's built real, worthwhile shit. Other's cha-chinged off taking their business public.

You want to take that cash and disperse it amongst everyone on the planet.

Tall people have an economic advantage. Let's cut them down to size while we're making shit fair.

The point it life is not fair. welcome to earth. it's never been fair it never will be fair.
